Poem by Robert Herrick

Up Scoble

Scobble for whoredom whips his wife and cries
He'll slit her nose; but blubbering she replies,
"Good sir, make no more cuts i' th' outward skin,
One slit's enough to let adultery in. 

1. On Himself (Lost to the world; lost to myself)
2. The Rock of Rubies, and the Quarry of Pearls
3. To Sapho
4. His Teares to Thamasis
5. Upon Julia's Ribbon
